The classroom happenings in Room 105!

A note from Miss Walker

We only have 9 days of school left! This week will be a busy one, with the 6th grade band & choir performance, our field trip to Victory Field on Thursday, and Career Day on Friday! While in class this week, we will be presenting our final Greek Mythology research projects. Students will also have the opportunity to earn extra credit in both Reading and Language this week. All extra credit is due on Friday, May 20th.

Don't forget to send your child with their Chromebook AND charger to school TOMORROW! We will be collecting the devices and assessing them for damages, so they will remain at school for the rest of the school year.

Let's have another great week in Room 105! :)

Medical Forms

Please don't forget to fill out the medical form that came home with your child last week! This form is to be used for NEXT school year, so please indicate the 2016-2017 school year in the top right hand corner. Also, please leave the space for Homeroom Teacher blank, as we do not yet know who your child's homeroom teacher will be! Thank you for your help! Please let me know if you have any questions or if you need a new form!

Field Trip!

This Thursday, May 19th, is our annual field trip to Victory Field! Please remember the following important pieces of information!

Students will need a sack lunch UNLESS they sold 2 or more boxes of chocolate in our fundraiser. (This will be marked on the info sheet coming home today)

Students and chaperones will not need money - we will not be purchasing items from the vendors at the park.

Please dress appropriately for the weather! We will be outside all day!

Students MAY BRING: cameras, baseball gloves, sunscreen, baseball hat

Please let me know if you have any questions! Looking forward to taking your child "out to the ballgame!"
